Motor boating care code

Introduction

Keep gear and equipment clean to minimise the spread of weeds and plant and animal diseases.

Stay within fishing collection limits.

Take rubbish with you and remove rubbish you find.

Dispose of toilet waste properly.

Be careful with chemicals.

Respect cultural heritage sites and don’t visit them without permission.

Consider plants and animals. If using power boats, find out what types of animals in the water with you. If penguins, be aware that propeller injuries are a possibility. Reduce speed and keep an eye out for birds.

Be aware and considerate of other recreationists, particularly swimmers, snorkellers, divers and small water craft.
